Until the local government changes of 1965 Barking was a town in Essex. Although the political administration has changed the postal address is still 'Essex'.
Even now the E4 postal area is partially outside the London political area (its in Essex) and the London telephone code area is very different to the political area.
Also, Surrey County Council is still in Kingston Upon Thames, even though K-U-T is no longer within the area it administers.
@Trainbrain1949 Only the first one - the version in Stourbridge is most certainly 'for real' as a serious form of transport.
OK, the concept could be used at amusement parks as a form of transport within the site, but with the coming financial cuts (after the election on 6th May... a few days from now) it could also save some branch lines from closure.
By "Barking, Essex", do you mean the Barking currently (and probably then) in Greater London?
